The Associated Press reports that the suspect’s name is Bryan Christopher Kohberger, 25, citing arrest paperwork filed by Pennsylvania State Police in Monroe County Court.
Mr Kohberger was arrested by a SWAT team at 3am in Scranton, Pennsylvania, according to the arrest records.
According to the Washington State University website, Mr Kohberger is a graduate criminology student in Pullman, Washington.
Pullman is around nine miles (15kms) west of Moscow, Idaho, where the students lived.
Mr Kohberger graduated from Pennsylvania’s DeSales University with a master of arts in criminal justice in May 2022.
More details are expected to be revealed at a press conference later this afternoon.
Looks like he was beginning as serial killer and was to use his degree to avoid capture.
